I am curious as to where the portion of your reply "Barony and up" came
from. The *Administrative Handbook of the College of Arms of the Society for
Creative Anachronism, Inc. January 24, 2009* states the following in the
section "Names Which May be Registered to Branches":

*4. Heraldic Titles - Titles for the use of heraldic officers. There are
several types of heraldic titles:*

*a. Kingdom and Principality Heralds: Titles for principal heralds of a
kingdom or chief heralds of principality. These may be registered to the
Kingdom or to the Principality directly, at the discretion of the kingdom.*

*b. Other Branch titles: Titles for heralds in service to local branches.
These may be registered to the kingdom to which the branch belongs or to the
branch in which they will be used, at the discretion of the kingdom. In
either case, the kingdom must approve the form of any heraldic title.*
I don't see any distinction made as to branch "level". I only ask because I
am a Shire herald and am interested in registering a title for my Shire in
the near future.
